Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis Bill Abston tells WISH-TV a female student reported seeing a man around 12:30 p.m. Tuesday with a long gun and she ducked behind a car. The man was last seen near a nursing building.

Abston says the man is described as a 6-foot white man with a long brown coat.

Also locked down were Riley Hospital for Children on the campus and a nearby Crispus Attacks High School, a medical magnet school.

"Indiana University Purdue University-Indianapolis police said a student walking to her car said she saw a white man in a long, brown coat possibly carrying a rifle or shotgun."

So, two schools go on complete lock down , the entire community and then the entire country is alerted, people cowering and hiding in some small offices, police resources and security resources tapped. All because one girl saw a white guy with a long coat and "maybe", "maybe" a long gun.......
